520			_aChD 6 July 2001. The claimant (L) made an application for a ruling that the evidence given by an expert witness in a tax case was inadmissible on the grounds that the expert (F) was a colleague in the chambers of the defendant (G). The action was compromised but the judge exercised his discretion and gave judgement on the admissibility of F's evidence. "Held" F's evidence was inadmissible as parts of it dealt with points of law and therefore did not qualify as evidence under the Civil Evidence Act 1972 s3, and because the relationship between F and G might lead an observer to suspect that the evidence given was biased.
